Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Panthers have agreed to terms with S Nick Scott.
It’s worth mentioning that signing him to a contract won’t impact a team’s 2025 compensatory picks, given that he was released this offseason.
Scott, 28, is a former seventh-round pick by the Rams out of Penn State in the 2019 NFL Draft. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2,597,328 rookie contract and is set to earn a base salary of $675,000 this season.
Scott signed a three-year, $12 million deal with the Bengals last offseason and was set to make a base salary of $3,000,000 in 2024 when Cincinnati opted to release him a few weeks ago.
In 2023, Scott appeared in all 17 games for the Bengals and recorded 57 tackles, one tackle for loss, and one fumble recovery.
